    es un gran juego, sus mecánicas están pulidas y en realidad no tiene puntos verdaderamente negativos, es muy entretenido y se nota que le metieron mucho cariño, recomendado

    What can I say...it's amazingly fun. I believe it's absolutely an essential title for any Switch player.

    This game is a blast. Mario handles pretty much flawlessly. A lot of the moons are really easy to get but there are enough challenging ones that make the game well-balanced.

    I'm not a fan of Mario nor paltform games but since this game the "Must play" seal of Metacritic I've decided to give it a try.

    First Mario game i've played in my life and didn't like it that much. Only played for 5 hours. I don't see anything special in it. Honestly i think is overhyped because of the nostalgia that revolves around it.

    This game is terrible. They actually removed the funny knuckles easter egg seen in nearly every other samus game. This game has no variety in it whats so ever, like nintendo can you maybe a bit more creative and atleast give mario a magnum. And what even are gushens, so stupid, gushens aren't even real smh smh smh. Mario was at his peak during the picross era and this really shows.

    Mario odyssey is an amazing game. With unique design and creative world layouts, it is a fantastic experience anyone can enjoy. However, some kingdoms, like the lake kingdom, are lacking key features, with its small inclosed design. The majority of other kingdoms, like the lost kingdom, metro kingdom, and bowsers kingdom, are beautifully designed with amazing gameplay. The game is quiteMario odyssey is an amazing game.

    the game is good, it has great level design, amazing graphics and a really good gimmick with cappy, the problems are that its to short and easy, it even has an easy mode when the normal one is really easy already, the bosses are really cool tho, the worlds are to small and uninteresting in some cases, the ending is awful and just a disappointing game if we compare it to something like galaxy

    This is an amazing game overall and is certainly one of the classics of the switch. I enjoy the games open world feel, the challenge at the finals level of the game, and I do love how you can wear clothes of past references and characters like Waluigi, Luigi, Wario, Abe Diddy Kong.

Although I do have some minor complaints with some of the power moons like the jump rope and the volleyball ones, and I would have to say that the bosses which are bunnies are kinda disappointing, but even with some minor thing sI may not like this is still a pretty solid game and definitely one that I would recommend to new switch owners if they are looking a great start to the console.… Expand

    tiene una jugabilidad perfecta, gran cantidad de elementos (reinos ENORMES, ropa para ponerle a Mario, jefes muy divertidos,ect.) y gráficamente es HERMOSO, sin embargo es bastante corto, pero esto no arruina el juego porque tiene un post-game INMENSO

    I have played Mario Odyssey atleast 3 times. So I like this game... BUT! Why are there million moons! And you can buy moons!?!? The kingdoms feel too small and too many MOONS. Overrated/10

    One of the greatest Mario / platform games to ever exist. Hours and hours and HOURS of fun (and maybe some expected hours of frustration) but this is one of the smartest and most thought out games of its kind that I’ve ever played. Can we please get a sequel, Nintendo!?

Durante a minha experiência no jogo, pude percebem as qualidades gráficas que apesar de não buscar o realismo, entrega uma beleza artística muito satisfatória, com personagens e cenários super polidos e com cores lindas que impressionam por rodarem em um console hibrido. O game possui várias fases super criativas e diversas, entregando uma experiência bem diversificada com algo novo e frequentemente surpreendendo o jogador.… Expand

    Whenever you move as Mario, it feels very natural and fun.From rolling to jumping,it feels awesome. Even when riding a Jaxi or a City Scooter, you are bound to feel comfortable with the controls.
    Overall, the gameplay is good and comfortable. No matter where and what you are doing, you are going to have fun. Never will you feel that because of the bad controls, it lead you to die.

    The movement in this game is godlike. I personally prefer less open games, but this is still amazing to me. This is clearly a 10/10 objectively, but I'm reviewing this on personal preferences.

    I've been playing Super Mario games since the NES, and this is hands down the worst Super Mario game to date.

    Awful, imprecise controls; Bad Camera; Boring, uninspired gameplay.

    One of the best games the Switch has to offer. You must play it to know what I mean, it's just really good.

    Its on par with Galaxy 2, Mario 64, and Sunshine

    A must own/play for any switch owner

    The movement is as fun as 64 and Sunshine and the Moon collecting is on par with Gal 2 sometimes

    While it was difficult to imagine how Nintendo could top previous 3D Mario adventures, Super Mario Odyssey is nigh-on perfect in almost every way. With the help of Cappy, Mario has never been as fun to control, reaching new heights and, in the hands of a skilled player, accomplishing impossible skips. You need only pick up a controller to see why this is the best modern Mario game ever.

    The best entry to the best platforming series is so ridiculously huge it’s like a theme park made of theme parks. It’s a wonderful tribute to Super Mario 64, but it’s not a lazy homage. Super Mario Odyssey draws inspiration from the superb classic to top it and everything that came after it. [13/2017, p.38]

    Perhaps no past Mario game has ever elicited so many smiles as this, and even if every other winning aspect of its design were set aside, that reality alone would make it a masterpiece. [Issue #31 – January/February 2018, p. 39E]
